WINCC

Women in Cocoa & Chocolate

A Network of Women in Cocoa & Chocolate

Women in Cocoa and Chocolate (WINCC) is an independent network, active since 2016, working to strengthen gender equity in governance and decision-making across the cocoa and chocolate sector.

​

As the sector faces growing complexity from climate pressure, regulation and supply constraints, diverse perspectives and strong leadership are essential. Yet women remain underrepresented in many decision-making roles. More women in the mix brings collaboration, innovation and long term resilience for the cocoa and chocolate industry. 

​

Real change requires allies. Men are essential in driving this shift forward as leaders, mentors and supporters.

“I am confident that WINCC will equip the women in the cocoa sector with the requisite knowledge and enable them to take up key leadership roles in society. This will help mitigate the gender inequality that has to a greater extent characterized the society.”
